Dh was unemployed (voluntarily) for the first few months we lived in NC..we lived with family..so we cheated on expenses, my pay was put away for getting a place and waiting for his job.
When I worked (pre kid) our budget of 'needs' was less than his income, so mine was mostly wasted (with some used smartly) While I would have used more smartly I am glad there was no major pain when I quit for kids. If I ever go back out of boredom (kids don't stay so young and cute forever) I would follow the same plan of not using my pay.
